"For Altman, zoom had its own value." "I learned not to be afraid to move the camera." (Vilmos Zsigmond) *2
The Images taken in Dublin, Ireland, feature a cloudy sky and sharp light. Following the previous film, The Gambler (1971), Vilmos Zsigmond and Robert Altman's cinematography focuses on creating colors through soft gradations of light and shadow, rather than capturing numerous colors. is considered important. Just as there is no boundary between an end and a beginning in Kathryn's visionary world, the spaces between colors are made up of infinitely seamless outlines. This is a stunning shot typical of Vilmos Zsigmond, who prefers "bleaching" to multicolor. The impact of Irish Light is immeasurable. This is also a film about the spirituality of the land.

Irish countryside. Kathryn stands on a cliff. She sees herself on “Zoom” as she enters the house. Furthermore, Kathryn, who is at home, stares back at herself on the cliff through a "zoom". This is the moment that makes you acutely aware that this is a film about the camera eye.
In addition, Kathryn's voice reading the fairy tale ``Looking for the Unicorn'' is just as important as the radical accompaniment, which has been described as a ``sound sculpture'' created by John Williams and Tsutomu Yamashita. (``Looking for the Unicorn'' is a book written by Susannah York). Kathryn's soft voice summons a fairy-tale-like fantasy to this land. You could say that the nightmare of this work was summoned by her own voice. Kathryn chases the fairy tale image and is hurt by the image she catches. The work ``Images'' itself is a creative process itself.
